He knows more about rockets and space travel and planets than all the scientists. Believe me.

Call it something else, Sen. Walter Sobchak Oct 2016 #2
How about Planet 9.02? JustABozoOnThisBus Oct 2016 #4
No, giving Pluto some sort of special status just because that's what people learned in school Warren DeMontague Oct 2016 #10
This issue left science behind and devolved into a dick measuring contest a long time ago Sen. Walter Sobchak Oct 2016 #12
Well, that's the whole point. If Pluto is categorized as a "planet", we have thousands of planets Warren DeMontague Oct 2016 #13

No, Eris is NOT a "cluster of pixels" Warren DeMontague Oct 2016 #16
Well if you have better observations than Hubble's please share them with everyone Sen. Walter Sobchak Oct 2016 #17
Im sure Mike Brown would be able to explain in detail why our knowledge of Eris's mass etc Warren DeMontague Oct 2016 #18
Huh? Sen. Walter Sobchak Oct 2016 #19
Until pretty recently, Pluto was "just a few barely observed pixels", too Warren DeMontague Oct 2016 #20
I'm not discarding anything, I want to know more. Sen. Walter Sobchak Oct 2016 #21
it is true that until 2006, "Planet" had no commonly accepted definition. Warren DeMontague Oct 2016 #22
If he finds the long hypothesized Planet X I don't doubt that is true. Sen. Walter Sobchak Nov 2016 #23
Eris is at least as significant a discovery as Pluto. Warren DeMontague Nov 2016 #27
The only person who was talking down the discovery of Eris was Mike Brown himself Sen. Walter Sobchak Nov 2016 #29
